阅读理解(三)1、A Competitive SportCheerleadingOver th e years, cheerleading has taken two primary forms: game-time cheerleading and competitive cheerleading. Game-time cheerleaders’ main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers, which should not be considered a sport. However, competitive cheerleading is more than a form of entertainment. It is really a competitive sport.Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. The majority of the teams require a certain level of tumbling (翻腾运动) ability. It’s a very common thing for gymnasts, so it’s easy for them to go into competitive cheerleading. Usually these cheerleaders integrate lots of their gymnastics experience including their jumps, tumbling, and overall energy. They also perform lifts and throws. This is where the “fliers” are thrown in the air, held by “bases” in different positions that require strength and working with other teammates.Competitive cheerleading is also an activity that is governed by rules under which a winner can be declared. It is awarded points for technique, creativity and sharpness. Usually the more difficult the action is, the better the score is. That’s why cheerleaders are trying to experience great difficulty in their performance.Besides, there is also a strict rule of time. The whole performance has to be completed in less than three minutes and fifteen seconds, during which the cheerleaders are required to stay within a certain area. Any performance beyond the limit of time is invalid.Another reason for the fact that competitive cheerleading is one of the hardest sports is that it has more reported injuries. According to some research, competitive cheerleading is the number one cause of serious sports injuries to women. Emergency room visits for it are five times the number than for any other sport, partially because cheerleaders don’t use protective equipment. Smiling cheerleaders are thrown into the air and move down into the arms of the teammates, which may easily cause injuries. Generally, these injuries affect all areas of the body, including wrists, shoulders, ankles, head, and neck.There can be no doubt that competitive cheerleading is a sport with professional skills. Hopefully, it will appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports. It should be noted that it is a team sport and even the smallest mistake made by one teammate can bring the score of the entire team down. So without working together to achieve the goal, first place is out of reach.1.What is the main purpose of competitive cheerleading?A.To compare skills of participants.B.To make the audience feel amused.C.To attract more people to watch events.D.To cheer up the competitors on the court.2.The underlined word “integrate” in Paragraph 2 probably means “______”.A.examinebineC.identifyD.replace3.We can learn from the passage that competitive cheerleading ______.cks necessary guidelines to followB.enjoys greater popularity than other sportsC.requires more designed actions than gymnasticsD.has a relatively high rate of damage to the body4.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?I: Introduction P: Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: ConclusionA.B.C.D.2、Black Friday is just a week away, an annual tradition in which holiday shoppers rush to the supermarkets and malls. Most shoppers pack stores to buy things at a discount. For some, however, shopping is less of a pastime and more of an addiction. These people have compulsive(强迫性的) shopping disorder, a condition filled with debt and regret.While it's true that many lack money and credit management skills, what these shoppers are often looking for is a “buy high”,an emotional rush to put themselves in a better mood, found San Francisco S tate University researchers in 2013. These types of shoppers often hold materialistic values. When under stress, materialistic shoppers are more likely to shop compulsively.Rather than providing any social or emotional outlet(发泄出口),the extreme stress-induced purchases only increase anxiety and lower well-being, and materialistic shoppers already tend to have lower self-esteem than others to begin with.In fact, it’s exactly at low moments that materialistic shoppers are most likely to shop for expensive items, and they're more likely to make those purchases on credit. This of course can create a vicious cycle, in which a materialistic shoppers with low self-esteem buys a luxury item he or she cannot afford in an effort to improve sense of self. The financial burden can cause stress and strain relationships over the issue of money, further affecting the mood of the shopper and leading to more spending to try to regain a sense of self-worth.Symptoms of shopping addiction include constant thoughts about shopping, buying to improve the mood and inability to change behavior.There are treatment options for those with compulsive shopping disorder, which may include medication. Other recommendations include shopping with a friend, getting rid of credit cards and above all, developing meaningful hobbies.1.What do you learn about Black Friday?A.Many shops have special offers.B.Customers can enjoy leisure time.C.Shoppers can get free products.D.Shoppers spend much money on useless things.2.According to the passage, the extreme stress-induced purchases _____.A.provide an emotional outletB.make people more anxiousC.regain people’s confidenceD.improve management skills3.When are materialistic shoppers most likely to shop for expensive items?A.When they are delighted.B.When they are excited.C.When they are inspired.D.When they are depressed.4.According to the author, which of the following is the most important treatment option?A.Taking chemical medicine.B.Shopping with a friend.C.Developing meaningful hobbies.D.Getting rid of credit cards.3、Is dark chocolate healthy? Yes,dark chocolate has compounds(化合物) that offer health benefits and can be enjoyed without guilt, even on a daily basis. But the amount matters, since too many bites can contribute to extra fat, sugar and calories and get rid of its health benefits.Dark chocolate is rich in cocoa, which contains compounds known as flavanols(黄烷醇). At high levels, cocoa flavanols have been shown to help lower blood pressure and the risk of diabetes. Dark chocolate has the highest amount of cocoa flavanols: milk chocolate has lens, and white chocolate has none.But while cocoa flavanols in dark chocolate make it a healthful treat they give it a biter flavor. Producers may process chocolate to make it more delicious, but doing so can remove some of these beneficial compounds,said Matt Hartings, an American professor. In spite of this,dark chocolate is still a healthier choice than milk chocolate, which tends to have more sugar. Additionally, cocoa powder contains minerals. So you can enjoy a piece of dark chocolate even after a meal. Just keep the following in mind.First, buy chocolate that has at least 60% cocoa. "Generally speaking,the higher the percentage, the more flavanols. These higher-percentage chocolates have the added benefit over the lower percentages and milk and white chocolates because they contain less sugar and less fat,” Hartings said.Second, if possible, choose natural cocoa over Dutch processed cocoa, which is treated with an alkali(碱). This gives chocolate a milder flavor but removes healthful flavanols.And finally, to keep weight in check, limit to 30 grams of dark chocolate daily, or about 150 calories.1.Dark chocolate is healthy mainly because of the existence of _______.A.rich mineralsB.less sugarC.cocoa flavanolsD.fewer calories2.What does the underlined word “treat” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Something enjoyable.B.A salt-free diet.C.Food paid by others.D.A cure for an illness.3.What can we learn from the text?A.Cocoa flavanols leads to high blood pressure.B.White chocolate is good for health.C.One can feel free to eat dark chocolate.D.Alkali can affect flavanols’ content.4.Wha t’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?A.To show his love for dark chocolate..B.To promote the sales of chocolate.C.To provide facts about dark chocolate.D.To make a distinction among chocolates.4、On a cool morning, Wilson Kasaine heads out along a dirt path in southernKenya. His calmness makes it easy to forget that he’s tracking one of the most dangerous animals in the world. Kasaine is tracking lions—especially one lion called Marti, who is the real-life Lion King of Selenkay Conservancy.Tracking lions on foot may sound like a death wish, but Kasaine has been doing it for most of his life. Born into a traditional Maasai family he quickly grew to understand the beauty and danger of wildlife. Living with big wild animals forces him to develop a good sense of where they have been and where they may be going. During his12-kilometer walks to and from school, he learned how to tell the pawprints (爪印)of a lion from those of other animals.Growing up, Kasaine knew that improving his tracking abilities would help him avoid surprise meetings with dangerous animals. For many Maasai, tracking is mainly a matter of self-protection. But Kasaine is tracking lions to meet them and to protect them. He leads a small group of wide-eyed tourists over the red sandy path, searching for the lion that has left upon it his prints.Each year, thousands of tourists crowdKenya’s national parks to try to have a look at the "big five”; elephants, rhinoceros, leopards, buffaloes and lions. The international d raw of these animals matters a lot because the nation’s economy is tied to the protection of its wildlife. If Kenya’s wildlife disappears, so does its second-largest source of income.Wildlife protection efforts in Kenya meant marking off land exclusively(专门地)for animals. But it also meant that the people who had originally lived in the area were forced to leave their land and into smaller surrounding areas, They are also finding it increasingly hard to keep a traditional Maasai lifestyle. But people are glad that it really makes a difference to wildlife protection.1.How did Kasaine track lions?A.By working together with tourists.B.By running after them all the time.C.By going to school every day.D.By studying their paw prints.2.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A.Maasai people are born animal lovers.B.Tourism is a big threat toKenya’s wildlife.C.Kenya benefits a lot from its wildlife protection.D.Small animals are not included in their protection policy.3.What does the underlined word "it” in the last paragraph refer to?A.Kenya’s economic development.B.Kenyan people’s traditional Maasai lifestyle.C.Kenya’s second-largest income source.D.People’s leaving their original homes.4.What is the best title for the text?A.Wildlife protection inKenyaB.Meeting a dangerous animalC.Wilson Kasaine’s wise choiceD.Learning to live with lions5、Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. " It opens your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfortable zone," Wegscheider said. She has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you when you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier. "The people you meet,the places you visit,or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person, said the 30-year-old man. Richardson describes traveling alone as ua sho t in the arm”, which makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything. He said, “ The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I'm dealing with a difficult task. I walk around withmy head up because I know that nothing is impossible if I try. ”The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said,Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness."1.Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?A.Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.B.It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.C.It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.D.Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.2.Traveling alone is challenging because_______________.A.you have to make things on your ownB.it is hard for you to prove yourself to othersC.you can only depend on yourself whatever happensD.it will finally build your character3.What can we infer about Chris Richardson?A.He started traveling alone at an early age.B.He was once shot in the arm.C.He used to work as a salesman.D.His website inspires others a lot.4.What is the best title for the passage?A.Travel AbroadB.Travel UnaccompaniedC.Travel LightD.Travel Wide and Far6、Dream in HeartOn the first day of school our professor introduced a new classmate—a wrinkled little old lady—to us. Her name was Rose, and she was eighty-seven years old.After class Rose and I walked to the Student Union Building and shared a chocolate milk-shake. She told me she always dreamed of having a college education and now she was getting one. We became instant friends. Every day for the following months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always attracted, listening to this “ time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.Rose became famous and easily made friends wherever she went. She tended to be highly motivated,responsible, and deeply involved in class participation. In spare time she had someone hang out or go to bars with. She even participated in some form of athletic activity. She said that extra-curricular activities can form a vital part of her experience, creating unique chances for friendship and learning.At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football meal. A little embarrassed, she leaned into the microphone and simply said, “ I’ m sorry I’ m so nervous.” As we laughed, she cleared her throat and began, “ Wedo not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you’ re nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year, you will turn twenty. If I’ m eighty-seven years old and stay in bed for a year, I will turn eighty-e ight. Anybody can grow older. It’ snon-optional but that doesn’ t take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the chance in change. In this way the elderly don’ t have regrets for what they did, but rather for things they did not do.” Rose concluded her speech by courageously singing “ The Rose” . She challenged us to study the words of the song and lived them out in daily lives.At the year’ s end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week aft er graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral in honor of the wonderful woman who taught by example that it’ s never too late to be all you can possibly be.1.Why does the author compare Rose to “ time machine” in Paragraph 2?A.To stress her old age and knowledge of life.B.To describe the close friendship between them.C.To show that she always enjoyed her active life.D.To explain why she took on a challenge in college.2.Rose was invited to speak at the football meal most probably because ______.A.she was a great football fanB.she was the smartest studentC.she tried hard to achieve her dreamD.she became more educated than the others3.We can learn that Rose agreed with the idea that ______.A.growing older means growing upB.it takes talent and ability to grow upC.receiving high education helps to be courageousD.one grows older at the same time when he grows up4.The passage is intended to ______.A.provide an example for the elderlyB.discuss how to grow up quicklyC.tell the importance of attending collegeD.inspire the readers to live up to lives7、Jane Austen, a famous English writer, was born at Steventon, Hampshire, on December 16, 1775, and died on July 18, 1817. She began writing early in life, although the prejudices of her times forced her to have her books published anonymously ( 匿名).But Jane Austen is perhaps the best known and best loved of Bath's many famous local people and visitors. She paid two long visits here during the last five years of the eighteenth century and from 1801 to 1806, Bath was her home. Her deep knowledge of the city is fully seen in two of her novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, which are largely set in Bath. The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping in its streets and public buildings the well-ordered world that she described so well in her novels. Now the pleasure of learning Jane Austen's Bath can be enhanced (增强)by visiting the Jane Austen Centre in Gay Street. Here, in a Georgian town house in the heart of the city, you can find out more about Bath in Jane Austen's time and the importance of Bath in her life and work.The Centre has been set up with the help and guidance of members of the Jane Austen Society. After your visit to the Centre, you can look round the attractive shop, which offers a huge collection of Jane Austen related books, cards and many specially designed gifts. Jane Austen quizzes are offered to keep the children busy.You can also have walking tours of Jane Austen's Bath, which is a great way to find out more about Jane Austen and discover the wonderful Georgian city of Bath. The tour lasts about one and a half hours. The experienced guides will take you to the places where Jane lived, walked and shopped.1.Jane Austen paid two long visits to Bath________.A.in her early twentiesB.in her early teensC.in her late twentiesD.in her late teens2.What can we learn about Bath from the passage?A.Bath has greatly changed since Jane Austen's death.B.The city has changed as much as Jane Austen knew it.C.Bath remains almost the same as in Jane Austen's time.D.No changes have taken place in Bath since Jane Austen's time.3.The author writes this passage in order to________.A.attract readers to visit the city of BathB.ask readers to buy Austen's booksC.tell readers about Jane Austen's experienceD.give a brief introduction to the Jane Austen Society4.It takes you about one and a half hours________.A.to get to the Jane Austen Centre in Gay StreetB.to buy Jane Austen related books, cards and giftsC.to find a guide to take you to the CentreD.to look around the city of Bath on foot8、Greg Woodburn, a student at the University of Southern California, spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers he collected. But soon the shoes will be sent to poor children in the United States and 20 other countries,thanks to Woodburn's Share Our Soles (S.O.S.) charity.A high school track star in the town of Ventura, California,Woodburn was treated in hospital for months with knee and hip injuries.“I started thinking about the health benefits, the friendship and the confidence I got from running,” he says,“And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes."Woodburn gathered up his old sneakers, then asked his friends to donate. His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas that year.When he collected more than 500 pairs, he decided to turn the shoe drive into a year-round endeavor.Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the YMCA and the local sporting goods store and from door-to-door pickups. Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools, a city gym and a recreation centre. He has started accepting adult sizes and sandals. So far, S. O. S has collected and donated more than 3,000 pairs.Woodburn has cleaned all the shoes. After sorting the shoes by size, Woodburn selects the good shoes for the washing machine and the worn-out ones for recycling.To ship the footwear,Woodburn teamed with Sports Gift, a nonprofit organization that provides soccer and baseball equipment to children around the world. Keven Baxter, founder and president, says, “We’d send kids balls and shoes. I've heard that for many of these kids,these old sneakers are the only shoes they had. They wear them to school and to do sports.So Greg's running shoes were a nice addition for us.”For many recipients, the shoes represent opportunity. Two young hoys in Southern California attended school on alternate days because they shared a pair of shoes. They were too big for one boy and too small for the other.Thanks to S. O. S., each brother received his own pair of shoes. The boys now attend school daily and enjoy their learning. When they graduate, they say, they will help a stranger, just as Woodburn helped them.1.What caused Greg Woodburn to donate old shoes for poor children?A.The benefits from playing sports.B.News about some poor children.C.His memory of school life.D.The medical treatment he received.2.When collecting more sneakers than expected, Woodburn decided to _________.A.include adult sizes and sandalsB.set up branches in different citiesC.collect shoes throughout the yearD.expand his endeavor in the whole city3.How did Woodburn manage to deliver the shoes collected?A.By sending them by mail.B.By working with Sports Gift.C.By advertising for those in need.D.By offering them from door to door.4.What can we learn from Keven Baxter’s remarks?A.Sports Gift is popular around the world.B.Many children need Greg’s old sneakers.C.Greg's running shoes are the best gifts for children.D.International organizations should provide more help.答案以及解析1答案及解析:答案:1.A; 2.B; 3.D; 4.C解析:1.细节理解题。
2019高考英语(三月)二轮文章阅读(2)及解析(2)When The Grapes of Wrath(愤怒) was published on March 14, 1939, it created a national sensation(轰动) for its description of the destructive effects of the Great Depression(大萧条) of the 1930s. By the end of April, it was selling 2,500 copies a day—a remarkable number considering the hard economic times. In May, the novel was a number-one best-seller, selling at a rate of 10,000 copies a week. By the end of 1939, close to a half million copies had been sold.John Steinbeck was shocked by the tremendous response to his novel. Almost overnight, he found himself involved in a great national debate over the migrant labor problem. Many people were shocked by the poverty and hopelessness of the story, and others denied that such circumstances could happen in America. Even people who had never read a book before bought a copy of The Grapes of Wrath. At $2.75 per copy, it was affordable and quickly sold out.However it was banned and burned in Buffalo, New York; East Saint Louis, Illinois; and Kern County, California, where much of the novel is set. In fact, the novel remains one of the most frequently banned books in the United States. The book was criticized sharply in Congress by Representative Lyle Boren of Oklahoma, who called the novel's description of migrant living conditions a lie. Charges were made that "obscenity"(淫秽) had been included in the book in large part to sell more copies. Eventually, First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt stepped in to praise the book and defend Steinbeck against his critics. In 1940, the novel won the Pulitzer Prize.The popularity of the novel has endured(持久). It is estimated that it has sold fifteen million copies since its publication. For almost sixty years, Steinbeck's novel has been a classic in American literature; it has been translated into several languages, including French, German, and Japanese. The Grapes of Wrath has also beena necessary part of the school curriculum in America since the end of World War II.1.

2019高考英语二轮阅读理解(三月强化训练08)及解析阅读理解-计划愿望和节假日活动(2)Everyone knows about straight-A students. We see them frequently in TV situation comedies and in movies like Revenge(复仇)of the Nerds. They get high grades, all right, but only by becoming dull laborers, their noses always stuck in a book. They are not good at social communication and look clumsy when it comes to sports.How, then, do we account for Domenica Roman or Paul Melendres?Roman is on the tennis team at Fairmont Senior High School. She also sings in the choral group, serves on the student council(学生会) and is a member of the mathematics society. For two years she has maintained A's in every subject. Melendres, now a freshman at the Universityof New Mexico, was student-body president at Valley High School in Albuquerque. He played soccer and basketball well, exhibited at the science fair, and meanwhile worked as a reporter on a local television station. Being a speech giver at the graduation ceremony, he achieved straight A'sin his regular classes, plus bonus points for A's in two college-level courses.How do super-achievers like Roman and Melendres do it? Brains aren't the only answer. "Top grades don't always go to the brightest students," declares Herbert Walberg, professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago, who has conducted major studies of super-achieving students. "Knowing how to make the most of your innate(天赋旳) abilities counts for more. Much more."In fact, Walberg says, students with high I.Q.s sometimes don't do as well as classmates with lower I.Q.s. For them, learning comes too easily and they never find out how to get down.Hard work isn't the whole story, either. "It's not how long you sit there with the books open,"said one of the many A students we interviewed. "It's what you do while you're sitting." Indeed, some of these students actually put in fewer hours of homework time than their lower-scoring classmates.The kids at the top of the class get there by mastering a few basic techniques that others can readily learn.。

2021高考英语二轮总练习阅读理解精选〔10〕及解析AI'm fat, I'm too skinny.I'd be happy if I were taller, shorter, had curly hair, straight hair, a smaller nose, bigger muscles, longer legs.Do any of these statements sound familiar Are you used to putting yourself down If so, you' re not alone.As a teen, you're going through many changes in your body.And as your body changes, so does your image of yourself.Lots of people have trouble adjusting, and this can affect their self-esteem 〔自尊〕.If you have a positive body image, you probably like and accept yourself the way you are.This healthy attitude allows you to explore other aspects of growing up, such as developing good friendships, growing more independent from your parents, and challenging yourself physically and mentally.Developing these parts of yourself can help boost 〔提升〕yourself-esteem.A positive attitude and a healthy lifestyle 〔such as exercising and eating right〕are a great combination for building good self-esteem.Some people think they need to change how they look oract to feel good about themselves.But actually all you need to do is change the way you see your body and how you think about yourself.The first thing to do is recognize that your body is your own, no matter what shape, size or color it comes in.If you are very worried about your weight or size, check with your doctor to verify 〔核实〕that things are OK.But it is no one's business but your own what your body is like—ultimately, you have to be happy with yourself.Next, identify which aspects of your appearance you can realistically change and which you can't.Everyone has things about themselves that they can't change and need to accept—like their height, for example, or their shoe size.When you hear negative comments coming from within yourself, tell yourself to stop.Try building your self-esteem by giving yourself three good things every day.By focusing on the good things you do and the positive aspects of your life, you can change how you feel about yourself.The most important thing is to get help if you feel like your body image and self-esteem are affecting your life.56.If we have a positive body image, we will_____.A.concentrate on our body image onlyB.not develop strong self-esteemC.like and accept ourselves as we areD.be less independent of our parents57.______ can NOT help to boost your self-esteem.A.Growing independent from your parentsB.Accepting your own body as it actually isC.Having a positive attitude and a healthy lifestyleD.Improving your body image as much as you can 58.To improve our body image, we have to _____.A.think about ourselvesB.be happy with ourselvesC.change the shape, size or color of one's bodyD.check with our doctor to verify that our body is OK 59.Which is probably the best title of the passage A.Importance of Body ImageB.Effects on a Person's Self-esteemC.Tips for Improving Body ImageD.Self-esteem and Body ImageB60.Where can we most probably read this textA.In a newspaper.B.In a magazine.C.In traveling guide.D.In a history textbook.61.The business hours of Cook's Cottage on Saturday in the summer are _____A.11:00 am—2:00 pm B.5:00 pm—10:30 pmC.9:00 am—5:30 pm D.9:00 am—5:00 pm.62.The Anchorage Restaurant is ____.A.in Williamstown B.in the center of the cityC.in Anchorage D.in Port Philip Bay63.Where can you spend the night in a tourA.Cook's Cottage.B.Sovereign Hill.C.Sydney Tower.D.Westfield Counterpoint.CIn an age dominated 〔控制旳〕by new media and the Internet, there are so many alternative ways of learning.Gone are the days when, if we couldn't make it into a classroom, the only real option was to pick up a book, or when audiomaterials consisted of bad quality cassettes or sporadic〔时有时无旳〕radio and TV programmes.With the appearance of broadband access to the web, we have a whole new learning domain 〔统领〕at our fingertips.Sophisticated learning materials in the form of text or high-quality audio are now available at the touch of a button, and tests and assignments can be submitted 〔进展〕and marked online.Questions and learning, studying away from the classroom has never seemed easier.Yet many teachers would argue that face-to-face contact between teachers and students is an essential part of the language learning experience.Enter the concept of blended 〔融合旳〕learning, an approach to education which seeks to combine the best of new technology and actual human contact.Advocates of blended learning argue that an approach to study which combines the benefits of new technology with the best aspects of face-to-face 〔often abbreviated to F2F〕teaching, will achieve better results.For example, there are some aspects of study, like practical sessions, dealing with more subjective questions, or meeting the needs of an individual student, which require face-to-face human interaction, whereas the more mechanical aspects of learning,such as answers to clear-cut questions, can be managed simply and effectively in a remote environment using new technology.Blended learning approaches have proven especially appropriate in language learning.For example, in an ELT 〔English Language Teaching 〕environment, a simple scenario 〔剧情概要〕might be a classroom session where a teacher asks a group of students to use a wiki to create a text.Students then go away and compose and edit the text remotely.During the next F2F session, the teacher express his opinion about their work.64.What is the main idea of this passageA.Blended learning is an effective learning approach.B.More and more people will use Internet-based learning materials,C.There are so many different ways of learning for people to choose in today's world.D.Blended learning methods have proven to be effective except in language learning.65.Which of the following aspects of study doesn't require face-to-face interaction between teachers and students A.Practical sessions.B.Tackling the needs of an individual student.C.Dealing with more subjective questions.D.Providing answers to clear-cut questions.66.It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A.the radio and TV in the past were of poor qualityB.people do not get audio materials through cassettes nowadaysC.it was not convenient for people to leam outside a classroom in the pastD.it was difficult to find a classroom with good learning conditions in the old days67.Which of the following can be best describe the writer's attitude towards blended learningA.Critical.B.Objective 〔客观旳〕.C.Supportive.D.Neutral 〔中立旳〕.DBotany 〔植物学〕, the study of plants, occupies a particular position in the history of human knowledge.For many thousands of years it was the one field of awareness about which humans had anything more than the vaguest 〔模糊旳〕〕of insights.It is impossible to know today justwhat our Stone Age ancestors knew about plants, but from what we can observe of pre-industrial societies that still exist, a detailed learning of plants and their properties must be extremely ancient.This is logical.Plants are the basis of the food pyramid for all living things even for other plants.They have always been enormously important to the welfare of people not only for food but also for clothing, tools, medicines, shelter, and a great many other purposes.Tribes living today in the jungle of the Amazon recognize hundreds of plants and know many properties of each.To them, botany has no name and is probably not even recognized as a special branch of "knowledge" at all.Unfortunately, the more industrialized we become, the farther away we move from direct contact with plants, and the less distinct our knowledge grows.Yet everyone comes unconsciously on an amazing amount of botanical knowledge, and few people will fail to recognize a rose or an apple.When nor Neolithic ancestors, living in the Middle East about 10,000 years ago, discovered that certain grasses could be harvested and their seeds planted for richer fields the next season—the first, great step in a new association of plants and humans was taken.Grains were discovered and fromthem flowed the wonder of agriculture: cultivated crops.From then on, humans would increasingly take their living from the controlled production of a few plants, rather than getting a little here and a little there from many varieties that grew wild, and the accumulated knowledge of tens of thousands of years of experience with plants in the wild would begin to fade away.68.What does the writer mean when he says "This is logical"in the first paragraphA.Human knowledge of plants is well organized and very detailed.B.It is not surprising that early humans had a detailed knowledge of plants.C.There is no clear way to determine the extent of our ancestor's knowledge of plant.D.It is reasonable to assume our ancestors behave much like people in pre-industrial societies.69.According to the passage, general knowledge of botany begun to fade away because ____.A.people no longer value plants as a useful resourceB.direct contact with a variety of plants has decreased C.botany is not recognized as a special branch of scienceD.research is unable to keep up with the increasing number of plants70.We learn that the first great step toward the practice of agriculture is____.A.the changing diets of early humansB.the development of a system of names for plantsC.the invention of agricultural implements 〔工具〕and machineryD.the discovery of certain grasses that could be harvested and replanted71.Human would depend on the controlled production of a few plants for living withA.the knowledge of plants B.the discovery of certain grassesC.the development of machinery D.the appearance of agricultureEIt has been argued that an infant under three who is cared for outside the home may suffer because of the separation from his parents.The British psychoanalyst John Bowlby believes that separation from the parents during the sensitive "attachment" period from birth to three may scar〔留下疤痕〕a child's personality and incline to emotional problems in later life.Some people have drawn the conclusion from Bowlby's work that children should not be sent to day care before the age of three, and many people do believe this.But there are also arguments against such a strong conclusion.Firstly, anthropologists 〔人类学家〕point out that the hidden love between children and parents found in modem societies does not usually exist in traditional societies.For example, we saw earlier that among the Ngonis the father and mother of a child did not raise their infant alone.But traditional societies are so different from modern societies that comparisons based on just one factor are hard to understand.Secondly, common sense tells us that day care would not be so widespread today if parents and caretakers found that children had problems with it.But Bowlby's analysis raises the possibility that early day care has delayed effects.The possibility that such care might lead to more mental illness or crime 15 or 20 years later can only be noticed by the use of statistics.Statistical studies of this kind have not yet been carried out, and even if they were, the results would becertain to be complicated and controversial.Thirdly, in the last decade, there have been a number of careful American studies of children in day care, and they have reported that day care had a neutral of slightly positive effect on children's development.But tests that have had to be used to measure this development are not widely enough accepted to settle the issue.72.This passage is mainly talking about________.A.children's personalityB.advantages of infants' early careC.infants' educationD.negative effect of infant school73.The phrase "day care in the first paragraph probably means_____.A.nursing school B.baby-sitter C.boarding school D.primary school74.According to Bowlby, children under the age of three______.A.should not be sent to schoolB.should be cared for outside the homeC.will not suffer fro m parental separationD.don't mind who will look after them75.The argument against Bowlby's conclusion shows that___.A.children have problems with day careB.there is no negative effect on infants who go to school before threeC.there is a long-term effect on infants who go to school before threeD.children who are sent to school before three are sent to mental
